Missouri Senate

Introduced

Any member of the Brain Tumor Awareness Organization may receive special license plates bearing the organization's emblem after making an annual application and paying a $25 emblem-use contribution to the Brain Tumor Awareness Organization. Such specialty plates shall bear the words "Brain Tumor Awareness" in lieu of the words "SHOW-ME STATE." No fees shall be charged for the personalization of such license plates.

Prior to the issuance of a Brain Tumor Awareness Organization specialty plate, the Department of Revenue must be in receipt of an application which shall be accompanied by a list of at least 200 potential applicants who plan to purchase the specialty plate, the proposed art design for the specialty license plate, and an application fee, not to exceed $5,000, to defray the department's cost for issuing, developing, and programming the implementation of the specialty plate. Once the plate design is approved, the Director of Revenue shall not authorize the manufacture of the material to produce the specialized license plates until such time as the director has received two hundred applications, the $25 specialty plate fee per application, and emblem use statements, if applicable, and other required documents or fees for such plates.
